FS: RR 90g AGA w/ black stand, Current PC lights, and Octopus 200 skimmer.

My wife wants more room in the living room for the kids so one of my tanks needs to go....

90g RR AGA tank has the old style corner overflow, black trim, and newly repainted black stand. Tank has some scratches as it is 5 or 6 years old. There's about 20# of sand in it you can have as well that I just put in about a month ago. I will not seperate tank and stand. $150

48" Current Dual 65w PC w/ Moonlights.

Bought the unit new in July. Comes with 4 legs and an extra set in case you break one. $55 OBO

Meshmodded Octopus NW200 in sump skimmer.

This unit was purchased in July as well and meshmodded for me by JRaquatics (Jeremy). $140 OBO

They are on the front and sides. The guy who owned it last must have used sand to clean the glass (poopsko24) .

I'll try to get a picture of the front pane that shows exactly how it is. I know you're too far to stop by to take a look.

Truly it isn't all that bad.

I can't get a good shot that would give you any idea of how it is.
It's a good enough tank for a low lit fish tank, but a highly lit reef tank would definitely show the scratches and be a eye sore.

Hansnfrans will be here tomorrow. I'll ask him to chime in his opinion of the tank.

How about $125 for the tank/stand and $50 for the light.

Thanks again Mike! It was well-worth the trip to p/u the skimmer. I can't wait to toss it in the sump and fire it up!

BTW: IMO, the scratches in the tank are not bad at all. I could barely notice them with the Current PC light over the tank. $125 is an excellent deal for the tank/stand!

I agree that it's a great deal..... but we plan on going to MH lighting on my sister in laws tank and don't want to worry about scratches. She had them on her 75g tank and they drove her nuts....

Bump for a great seller and great prices!

Here's a pic of my Octo NW-200 without a mesh-mod (after 24hrs of skimming):
[IMG][/IMG]

Here's a pic of my other Octo NW-200 (that I got from Aquaticman74) that has the mesh-mod (after 18hrs of skimming):
[IMG][/IMG]



Very pleased with the performance of the new skimmer. You can tell that the skimmate on the mesh-modded skimmer is alot darker. Thanks again Mike!

Hello, I'm interested in the light. Do you ever go to the stores in the Northwest or North suburbs?
